Yes and think there is a few other spots...
I'm interested if you're still taking random - self sufficient - vehicles. (gotta get the okay from the wife first though.)

Well the planning is still on going at this point but those are the fine details. Here are the game plan. San Diego folks meet at the Vons shopping center off of Scripps Poway parkway near the Vons at 0845. Wheels rolling at 0900 and off to Yuma, AZ where we will meet up with any of the Copper State Cruiser members and @chap79. Hope to be there about 1pm if not sooner. The meeting point will be the Fry's Grocery off of Fortuna Rd. Hopefully we will be wheels up about 130 pm and off to the 95 where we will get on trail. Figure to drive about 2.5 to three hours the first day and cover about 70 miles hopefully.
Fuel stops on the north bound run will be in Salome, Alamo Lake, Wikieup and Kingman. Depends if we will need to make all those stops but depends. Hopefully day 2 will be about 100 miles maybe more and end outside Salome area. The third day will see us making it up to the Wikieup if not further again about 100 miles. The last day will be into Kingman by about lunch time. Again these are all guesses, we may go faster or slower depending on the terrain and weather. I'm guessing it will be cold nights and warm days. Plan for the worst on cold nights. The goal is to be wheels up at 0830 each morning. More specifics will come later but just a quick up date on the run.

Hope everyone is okay or made it there safely. The 8 was a s*** show this morning. My daughter and I made it through before they closed it.
Saw a clean 100 at the Chevron on Imperial Hwy and I-8.

I'm out,
Stuck as in STUCK or just stopped till conditions improved?
Hello CruiserBauers. Not sure if you guys ever completed the run, but we at CSC AZ are planning one in that area as well that you and the group can join if you wish. Link here: Events/Trails - Arizona Peace Trail South Half 4/4 - 4/10/2020
If you guys completed the run at the end of Dec, how did it go?

Depends on how you define finish...
For those not in the know yet @KTP has purchased himself a fully built 80 (U-boat Edition) at a good price. Currently pending shipping.
I do, but it’s going in a different direction. For those that don’t know me all that well I LOVE LAND CRUISERS!! Have for decades. But I’m leaning towards a Tacoma purchase for the wheeling/overlanding that the wife and I have given our midwestern local. But I’m also thinking about building a truggy too for rock and mud playing. And when the moment presents itself I’ll pick up another cruiser.
